possible that the valve body is going out....might need a rebuild on that.

Take it to a trusted certified trans mechanic and let them do a road test.Post your answer and we can decide what the next step is.

Do you have the correct bracket for the TV cable and have it adjusted correctly?

Just did same rebuild...well assisted with it anyway. We had same problem. For the OD problem we simply had to adjust the kickdown cable, ours was just a bit too long. I didn't work with the downshift issue but if I remember correctly he had to adjust the TV cable to fix that problem.
